Getting lost will help you find yourself.

On the 13th of September John Mayer decided to bid the world of Twitter goodbye, leaving behind his almost 4 million followers.

First off, I'm not as devastated as most Mayer fans would be. I am in fact impressed by what he did. Most celebrities use Twitter as a way to communicate with their fans, which I think is a good thing. Sometimes however, we get so attached to such online accounts that we forget to live in the real world. See, having a verve in the virtual world is not as bad, but when it eats up your entire social and personal life, might as well start thinking, buddy.

2 years ago, I left my blog, deleted my Friendster and filtered my Multiply account. It is sort of like an epiphany. Why do people (mostly strangers) get to have access on what's going on in my life? The ups, downs, lefts and rights. Everything! When some of them don't even deserve to know what I'm currently doing or if I died or something. Result? I now am one of the few human beings that don't have Facebook and now blogging anonymously. :)

Twitter though is a different subject. I have one but of course I won't tell you that.

Did I mention that Mayer is also putting an official halt on his Battle Studies world tour? He announced the heartbreaking news September 12th on his Tumblr account, http://jhnmyr.tumblr.com.

Now, that is indeed GOING STEALTH!

Philippines, you are soon to be a Wonderland.

If you don't know John Mayer, you must be living under a rock for quite some time now. If you don't know that John Mayer himself is flying to Manila this May, you must be one heck of an anti-social...or you hate technology enough to rid them off your life for good.

I do like John Mayer but not enough for me to watch him at SM Mall of Asia. The venue, I don't really like. I'm fond of Araneta Coliseum, I feel safe there for some reason. I know a lot of people who anxiously waited for the details of Mayer's concert. That's why I was no way near surprised when I saw a fan page on Facebook named "Lintek! Ang MAHAL ng JOHN MAYER tickets!".

It got me laughing and giggling, not because it was particularly funny, but because it was amusing. Most of the fans of the page are people who can't really afford the hefty tickets. They don't express hate or anger to anyone, though. Just words of dismay and frustration about the expensive tickets and the fact that most of them can't buy any.

This picture I find hilarious and mirthful on many levels:

I don't think its meant to be offensive in anyway :)
